inexplicably, my knee is now throbbing

I'd like to think that someday I would feel like a normal, healthy human being again, but I probably won't accomplish that while I work in theater.

Other (slightly more positive) things I would miss out on if I were not in theater:
* spending the work day holding up walls while other people unscrew them, then getting to eat free pizza

* helping people in and out of mascot costumes

* being in a mascot costume

* supporting the post-it industry

* taking multi-hour meetings about the placement of light and sound cues in a forty minute long children's show

* explaining to small children how the "brick" walkway turns into a garden (and isn't really brick to begin with)
